Dec-01-20 Wesley So    knightF5: Congrats GM Wesley So!      Mar-02-18 World Championship Candidates (2018)    knightF5: <So, on the other hand, will probably have a good tournament, but it's harder to imagine him putting together a string of wins than some of the others (although he might).> Wesley may not be known to putting together string of wins in a tournament rather he is more known to ...      Dec-06-17 Carlsen vs So, 2017    knightF5: Yes. Carlsen used to win those kind of games that was why he gained so much elos before. Not anymore plus the fact that Naka stops contributing so much elos to Carlsen. 10-0 classical Carlsen -Naka before that could mean 40+ elos. Those days were over. Carlsen's play is still ...      Apr-26-17 So vs Kramnik, 2017    knightF5: Toribio3: I disagree. Kramnik is just 6 months (Oct 2016 - 2817) off his peak elo and again just 6 elos (2811) off his peak when Wesley beat him. Kramnik was just around his peak form when Wesley beat him.      Dec-29-16 So vs Adams, 2016   knightF5: <GM Adams was a strong player before.> Adams has not actually weakened much. His peak was 2761 in 2013 and he is now 2751. Just 10 elos off his all time high. Oppositions have grown stronger, especially Wesley.
